Beyond that, I'd be just as PG> interested to find out about this as you would Scuse me... perhaps your tradition teaches that, but it is by no means a universal rule that a coven can only have 13 members. It used to be a small number since it's a widely held belief that the more people know about something, then the higher the chance that one will tell others. In the Burning Times, this was a very bad thing, considering that if the church found out about it, they generally were quite peeved at the offenders. Nowadays, there is not so much the same threat, but there are still other threats. I know people who cannot be open about their religion because they would be fired or otherwise suffer.

My point was that the person you were talking to was explaining that they'd gotten fed up, and "blasted" the other person. Your response in chiding him (and who are you -or I- to try to tell another star how to act) was based on a calm, rational manner of dealing with the situation, and not really applicable to the situation. More apt might have been to simply say, "Ahh.. Lost your temper, huh?" This would have been a way to remind the person of the possible karmic "strings" attatched to losing one's temper, without coming across in a scolding manner. And, after all, as you were in your way pointing out: Love is the law, love under will. ... =+=Vitriol=+= 718499927771849992777184999277718499927771849992777184999277718 From: Black Tiger Area: MagickNet To: Peter Giordano 11 Jul 92 00:45:44 Subject: Thirteen UpdReq Alas, not only is 13 supposed to be a good number of members for a coven, it is also said that a coven should be balanced between male and females. Therefore, I think (and I think I read it somewhere ?) that it really meant 6 men and 6 women and the 13th member being the gods, spirit, whatever term you use....
